Spirulina, Can we use it for boosting hb

(1/1)

nkmis.mishra:
Hi Andy,

My brother-in-law who is Thal-Minor started using Spirulina from last 2 months and found boost in his hb by 2 points. Initially his HB used to be 9.5 and now it is showing 11.5.

I searched in google and founf Spirulina contains iron.

Will very much appreciate your kind advice if we can use it for my son who is Thal-Intemedia.

Best regards

Mishra

Andy Battaglia:
Reading nutritional information can be misleading, as the information is based on one cup. How much spirulina is being taken daily?

nkmis.mishra:
Hi Andy,

Thank you very much for a very quick response.

He has been taking 1000 mg Spirulina which contains 0.3 mg of Iron per day.

Once again thanking you very much.

With best regards

Mishra

Andy Battaglia:
.3 mg iron is a very small amount. Almost any vegetable or meat will have more. You should have no concern about the iron content of spirulina. I would appreciate if you follow up later to let us know if the increase in Hb maintains.

Bobby:
I was taking Spirulina at a lower dosage(200mg) along with Wheatgrass(500mg) tablets for about two months, but did not see any increase in my Hb at my last visit.
